Honestly, Jim...."No" to all of your questions. But these are issues of "MY" day.

But ifpeople went through life harboring those type of longstanding resentments.....with no possibility for forgiveness and the need to "move on".....it would be easy to understand the black race's plight RE:slavery. Can we NEVER get past our ancestor's (not OURS) transgressions?

I don't fault you for feeling the way you do. I don't understand it. I don't feel that way. I hope you believe that.
